"I think the key is winning early games," Florio added. "You establish momentum early, which they did in 2009. Confidence begets more confidence, and you're on track."

Yep. Need to learn to win and do it early.

Re: Sleeper...?
 

I'd be amazed at 2-2 given the first four games of the schedule

Re: Sleeper...?
 

In order to be the best, you have to beat the best....

You just have to bounce with the flow. So 4-0 is the benchmark!

Re: Sleeper...?
 

I think we HAVE to go 2-2 for any shot. Looking down the barrel of another 0-4 start will be hard to come back from mentally for the players and some coaches.

I would the first game is a must win game for us at this point given our history of starting slow the past several years.
Carry a win going into the Patriots game and we may be in good shape.

Re: Sleeper...?
 

If Brees only plays a few snaps we go 0-4.

Re: Sleeper...?
 

We need to win at least 1 of the first 3 games. In recent years we have lost close games early in the year we easily should have won. Last year's Giants game with the blocked field goal TD. The Arizona opener two years ago where the defense folded and the offense could do nothing but attempt field goals.

We cannot hold back, we should play like it's December already.

Re: Sleeper...?
 

yep, we have to get rolling. 0-2 to 0-4 just will not work. This opener is huge, we really need this win up in Minny

Re: Sleeper...?
 

What.... We're not going 4-0? :confused:

Re: Sleeper...?
 

What's wrong with 4-0?

That's what she says.
